About the Brand

Shiseido was founded by Arinobu Fukuhara in 1872 in the Ginza district of Tokyo. The brand was established as the first privately owned Western-style pharmacy in Japan, and its name derives from the Chinese classical work Yi Jing, or the Book of Changes. Its corporate DNA combines art and science, rooted in Japanese culture and aesthetics.

The product thus follows the brand's tradition of combining a scientific approach with Japanese aesthetics.
